What

Skills that arrive through skill syncing now skip file-attachment extraction from their content, matching how skills from MCP servers and the memory store already behaved. The exception is remote or cowork runs, where extraction still happens.

Details
  • The remote check is CLAUDE_CODE_REMOTE or CLAUDE_CODE_IS_COWORK; either being set restores extraction for synced skills.
  • The previous rule was a per-source list that skipped extraction only for mcp and memoryStore skills.
Evidence

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
